Steps / methods

Draw materials:

Seedlings propagated by sowing or cutting can be transplanted to pot for several years. The old pile can also be selected from the mountain. After digging, the long root system and dense branches are trimmed, and the billet is raised in the open field for 1 ~ 2 years, and then processed in the basin.

Put on the basin:

① selection basin: boxwood perennial oil green, it is appropriate to use purple sand pottery basin, basin color to purple or light yellow is better. The shape of the basin depends on the form of the shape. The cliff type should use a deep thousand-cylinder basin, while the oblique type or curved dry type should use an oval or rectangular basin.

② soil: the bonsai soil is cultivated with mature pastoral soil or rotten leaf soil mixed with appropriate ridge bran ash, which is suitable for fertile and loose, and the loam with good ventilation and permeability is the best. It is advisable to carry lodging soil on the old pile.

③ planting: yellow poplar is more hardy and can be carried out before sprouting in spring. When planting, the root system should be trimmed too long and too dense, and do not make the root fossa bend in the basin. Newly planted boxwood should be placed in a semi-shady place.

Clipping:

Generally speaking, the lateral root of small leaf melon seed and yellow poplar is longer and the leaves are dense. in addition to cutting off the redundant random branches, for the short cut of the trunk, one side of the branch should be selected in the appropriate part of the trunk, and the branch should be truncated above the branch axil to reduce the height. If there are no lateral branches instead of trunk, it is difficult to form a crown.
